they say it was still psychoactive & clearly used for that purpose as no other hemp products were found at the burial sight. that's alot of weed!

Must have been pretty stoned in the afterlife!

What a shame none of the seeds germed.

they said it was either restricted to a few individuals, or these shamans passed it out as medicine. i think its the latter haha

 

[chillwills]

It said it contained a relatively high concentration of T.H.C.

That would be sweet if they tested it and it had like 25% or 30. Probably had more like 10 or 12%.

 

[puffntuff]

That's badass!!! And we are supposed to be smarter than those dudes!! Bullshit they had a grasp on the meaning of life and liberty.

Word word, they should put some of the stash back out of respect.

Relative is the key word here, and time period is the key aspect. Back in the 60s, they used to confiscate sacks that had a lot of trim in it. Of course trim has small amounts of thc, so the average thc in an ounce bag of bud would be 3-5%. This is considered to be the average by the government for all weed dating from the 60s and back. A strain with relatively high thc in the "olden" days was 6-12%, so that would be my guess for the level of thc in the thousand year old bud.

Goes to show you how important the plant must have been to the pharaohs if they didn't even want to be without it in the afterlife.
...good idea...

Not sure if homie was a pharaoh, he was found in Northwestern China, and was a Caucasian with blue eyes (according to the article). They're guessing he was a shaman.

Ahh gotcha. Well i guess we better get to makin threads then eh? People need to hear about this!!!!!!111!!!

 

[bobbypyn]

i don't search on this site. it's pointless & frustrating & I believe it is thusly by design, to encourage endless reposts of "Why are my leaves turning yellow?" type questions. so whatever. don't read it then. I hadn't heard about it & apparently not everybody else had either so whatever; I owe RIU 6 bits of space for a repost. bill me.

 

[Michael Phelps]

^yeah i dont ever search shit either.
